What year is the Year of the Tiger?

The Year of the Tiger is based on the traditional Chinese calendar. The Tiger in the Chinese Zodiac corresponds to the Yin in the twelve Earthly Branches, and the Year of the Tiger is the Year of the Yin, with every twelve years as a cycle. Every twelve years is a cycle. Years in which the year number is divided by twelve and the remainder is six are Year of the Tiger. For example, C Yin 1986, E Yin 1998, G Yin 2010, the next Tiger Year is 2022 AD.

The Year of the Tiger is counted from the first day of spring of the 24 Solar Terms, because the Chinese zodiac year is dependent on the Stem and Branch Calendar, which is a method of dating the year in the Stem and Branch Calendar. The Stem and Branch Calendar is a calendar that uses 60 different groups of heavenly stems and earthly branches to mark the year, month, day, and hour, and it is China's unique solar calendar.

It starts the year with the beginning of spring, and divides the twelve months into twenty-four solar terms, with each month containing two solar terms and no leap months. The calendar is related to the cyclical movement of the earth around the sun, and it reflects the climatic changes of the seasons of the year.
